Ok, so i've decided i'm pulling a 96 windor roller 351 block from the junkyard tomorrow. I've read conflicting things telling me what all i'm going to need to do the swap. This swap is going to be very slow progress as I am also a college student. I just want to get the thing started on. Heres what I know i'll need

-Oil pan and pump
-New set of shortie headers
-heads drilled to 1/2 inch bold size
-cam
-new intake (at least lower intake, I have a cobra intake but will probably switch to trickflow)
-flywheel and balancer

Now something I have a question on, I've read that you need to buy an accessories kit for front accessories to swap. However, I was told that is just for the ones up to year 93. Since I have a 95 will my front accessories and timing cover just swap straight over?

Any help would be great, and let me know if theres anything else I need (Since it's a motor from the junkyard i'll also be taking it to a machine shop to get it looked over and also i'll be replacing all the internals)

 

your accessory brackets will swap directly over, as your brackets are bolted to the heads only.

 

Thanks Adder! One more question, what about the oil pan? Like I said before for the accessories, I know they need the swap kit up to 93, but do 94 and 95? There's a ton of how to's and listings of what all you need out there for the fox's, just not so much the sn95's.

 

youre going to need at the minimum:

new oil pan

headers

intake manifold

if you dont have an F4TE block its going to be a hyd flat cam, not a roller

28oz balance flywheel and balancer instead of the 50oz crap

the brackets bolt right up to the heads theres no kit needed

more than likely youll need a cowl hood too

im sure theres more but thats all i can think of...

 

roghoge, make sure you use the timing cover from the 5.0. You can add an H/X-pipe for a 351 to your list also.
